Opening Connector for Surpac

You can use Connector for Surpac to start Surpac from the 3DEXPERIENCE platform.


Before you begin: Surpac is installed.
  1. From the Compass, select 3D Modeling Apps and then Connector for Surpac.
    The Select version to open dialog box appears.
  2. In the Launcher tab, from the Version list, select the version of Surpac you want to open.
  3. Optional: On the Options tab, specify options for the version. The available options match the Surpac versions that are installed.
    1. From the Profile list, select a profile. By default, this is the profile defined in the version for Surpac you selected. If you have not defined a default profile in Surpac, then No Profile is selected.
    2. Specify license server options. The options available in the Licence Server vary according to the type of license you choose in the Licence Type list.
    • If you select a network license, enter the server details.
    • If you select a DS License Server (DSLS) license:
      • Append the license port to the server name with a ":". By default, the port is 4085. If you enter an invalid name for the server or invalid roles, Surpac is unlicensed. You can change the licensing type in Surpac.
      • Ensure you enter the valid license codes separated by spaces in the Licence Class/Roles field. If an invalid role is selected, you can choose valid roles on the Dassault Systèmes Licensing form in Surpac.
    • If you use the default license class, leave the Licence Class/Roles field blank; otherwise, enter the class details.
      • For the GEOVIA license type, enter the license class details.
      • For DSLS license type, verify you provided valid licence role separated by spaces.
        Note: If you have set default licensing details or a default profile in Surpac in a desktop shortcut, and choose a different license or profile, the default is ignored.
  4. Click OK.

The version of Surpac using the profile you selected starts.
